Exodus 8:25-27

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁵ And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said to them: Go, and sacrifice to your God in this land.

²⁶ And Moses said: It cannot be so: for we shall sacrifice the abominations of the Egyptians to the Lord our God: now if we kill those things which the Egyptians worship, in their presence, they will stone us.

²⁷ We will go three days' journey into the wilderness: and we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, as he hath commanded us.
